The Finherias'. Claims.-

LONDON October 1O.-The Post comment
ing ON the fisheries dispute says: Tibet
main contention of the Americans Is that
no nation has the right Of Jurisdiction over
the sea beyond three mile limit. On the
Pac ific, America is acting in fiat contradie-
tor to any such principle of interstate
con lity or treaty rights. Despatch vessels
hay e arrested vessels far outside of the limit
AM their captains fuedand crews imprison-
ed. In some cases the vessels and cargoes
ha ve:been forfeited. American Pacific claims
fos m an excellent counter argument to
Al merieas Atlantic claims, and as such
w i'll be of great and direct value to Mr..
O. 1amberlain." In the case OF the Pacific
sc lures by the United States authorities
Il le Morning Post further says IL remains q
v ital fault that they occurred where the
b elegraph and newspapers are not known,
8 the local 09icials can thus provide an
unchecked account of their proceedings
Mr.. Chamberlain, it says in the absence of
information from independent sources Is
helpless to contend against American evil
dence. and it urges Lord Salisbury to col
Iect evidence, lest Mr.. Chamberlain be
hsmpered in the negotiations.

that the disease has been very virulent and
rspid in its fatality in the majority OF
,ases. In several instances the patients
we're we'll at one inspection and nearly
DUlseless twelve hours later. The report
also tells how the ship was fumigated. II
was thoroughly washed with boiling water
twice and afterwards with solution of
corrosive sublimate, two parts to 1000 of
water. All clothing and textile fabrics
we're soaked In boiling water for hours,
and 100 pounds OF sulphur was twice

,remnhis D,strict Cotton Crop.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, October THE regular
monthly cotton crop report for the Mem
pbis district which embraces West Tennes-
see, North Mississippi, North Arkansas
and North Alabama TO be published to-
morrow by Hill, Fontaine q Co., will say
the reports of the injury to the cotton crop
from drouth and other causes which were
given IN their August statement are fully
confirmed and there has been a slight in-
crease reported which now estimates the
iamsge sustained at fully 32% Dercsnt
from which the yield promised on the 1st
IF July. The weather during September
YES ia the main favorable for picking, and
great progress was made during
september, it being estimated that
1p 20 October 404 percent OF the
crop had been gathered. The prospective
yield throughout the district show a Ma
'erial decrease. Tennessee has suffered
most ond reports decrease Of 80 par cent,
Arkansas of 81 1-3 per cent, Alabama OF
10 per cent, and Mississippi OF 10 l-3
or cent, making the average decrease in
he prospective yield of the district, as
.ampared with last year, of 1917 per cent.
Cotton is being marketed with great free
dem, and the earliness of the season is evil
ience by the fact that receipts at Memphis
